Washer Reservoir
The blue coloured reservoir filler cap for
both the windscreen washer and headlamp
powerwash is located beneath the front
body access hatch (see page 78).
Topping up:
Prise the cap off and fill with
clean water and a good quality windscreen
washer fluid (see ‘Technical Data’ section).
After topping up ensure to refit the cap
securely.
NOTICE:
Do
NOT use radiator antifreeze
in the reservoir as this could seriously
damage the paintwork and/or some plas-
tic components. A good quality product
should be used and mixed as per the
manufacturers recommendations as an
insufficient concentration may result in
the vehicles headlamp washers freezing
in severe conditions.
Washer Jet
If necessary the heated washer jet may be
cleared or adjusted using a suitable pin.
Wiper Blade
To replace the wiper blade, open the front
body access hatch (see page 78) to allow
the arm to be lifted fully away from the
windscreen. Swing the blade through 90°
and slide off the pivot pin on the arm.
Brake/Clutch Fluid Reservoir
In the event of a low fluid level a sensor in
the reservoir cap will illuminate the
in the instrument panel. (See ‘Tell Tale
Lamps’).
Under normal circumstances, there is no
requirement for routine ‘topping up’ of the
brake master cylinder reservoir. A visual
weekly safety check is all that is required.
Brake Fluid Level Check
Open the body access hatch (see page 69)
and without disturbing the filler cap, check
that the level is in between the ‘MAX’ and
‘MIN’ marks moulded on the translucent
reservoir body.
As the brake pads wear, the level will drop
gradually from the ‘MAX’ mark towards the
‘MIN’, but
if the level drops rapidly over
